This repository contains a bunch of brainfuck implementations in rust.

They are:

• a simple AST based interpreter.
• a naïve brainfuck-to-c transpiler.
• a compiler using cranelift.

None of these implementations are particularily well opimized.

To run these programs one only needs:

• a working rust installation and
• a C-compiler/linker to turn the C-file from the transpiler and the object-file from the compiler into executables, as they both require libc to be linked.
